Escalation in Palestinian Territory

[Abcdxxxx]

Oh look, Geggy Sr. is back.

No you're defining moral equivalency, and confused about the difference. It has nothing to do with equivalency when I ask you to show some interest in the Arab on Arab violence insead of focusing on Israeli on Arab violence, and it has everything to do with the fact that the greatest violence (or even injustice) against Arabs, and Palestinians is not at the hands of Israel. Hamas have stated that Israel's right to self defense is in and of itself an act of aggression. Is that what you're trying to say here? Are you really going to put in the effort to form some argument that Israel was being cruel and barbaric in taking custody of these prisoners? The multiple kidnappings, and other destruction as a response mean nothing to you? Talk about something you understand.

Fatah to Abbas: Dismantle PA
Organization activists say in letter to PA chairman that ‘unprecedented humiliation’ in Jericho shows PA has hit dead end; ‘You must demand international community take over responsibility for Palestinian people,’ they add

Is the PA crumbling? Dozens of Fatah activists throughout the West Bank demanded Wednesday that Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas announce the dismantlement of the PA following Israel’s operation in the Jericho prison Tuesday.

Senior Fatah members - including top lawmakers, district mayors, and members of the Palestinian National Council - signed a letter to Abbas Wednesday, saying: “You must demand of the international community to take responsibility for Israel’s conduct and for the rights of the Palestinian people.”

In the letter, the Fatah activists say that after the humiliation of the Palestinian security forces Tuesday witnessed by the whole world, and their inability to fulfill their jobs or keep the prisoners in the prisons, and considering Israel’s cooperation with the United Stated, the diplomatic process has hit a dead end.

“Therefore, we demand the PA announce its dismantlement as quickly as possible, owing to the absence of any hope of dealing with the occupation, and considering the American and British stances, and the complete hopelessness of attaining (Popular Front head captured by Israel Tuesday) Ahmad Saadat’s release, we see the dismantlement of the PA as the only solution,” the Fatah activists wrote.

‘Abbas has no option’

Speaking to Ynet, Taysir Nasrallah, a member of the Palestinian National Council and Fatah leader in Nablus, said: “We figure that if Israel does not announce the return of Saadat and his colleagues, and if Israel does not announce that it will stop building the security fence which is destroying the West Bank, and if the United States and Britain don’t apologize for cooperating in yesterday’s events, then Abbas has no option but to announce the dismantlement of the Palestinian Authority. And the world can carry the responsibility towards the Palestinians, and Israel can return to managing our lives here in all societal and infrastructural aspects.”

Nasrallah said that the Palestinian Authority experienced unprecedented humiliation on Tuesday.

“The Israeli army not only disarmed the Palestinian policemen and security officials in the Jericho prison, but disarmed the Palestinian Authority of its last shred of honor. And therefore if there is no change with relation to repatriating Saadat or the separation barrier, then Abbas has no choice left to him,” he added.
